Painting your belly like an Easter Egg? Anyone?

So I thought it would be fun to do w/DS (have DD paint my belly like a pumpkin) since he was due 10/27 (born 11/1) but we never did it.  Then a friend said you should paint this one like an easter egg and have DS and DD paint your belly.  May be a fun thing to do with them....anyone else doing it?

IMO it's tacky and gross.  So no, I won't be doing it.

My egg would look severely cracked, with all the stretch marks ;)

I did my belly up like a pumpkin in Photoshop for the Halloween I was pregnant with Juliana (born 11.7.07) and sent out an e-card.

I see where you're going with this, and I like your energy, but I won't be doing this. :)

I don't really like the looks of naked pregnant bellies, that's just me. Even when I wasn't pregnant, I never exposed my mid-drift even though it's not real flabby.  Self-conscious I guess.

BTW Lina, Greek Easter and regular Easter are a week apart! I wonder what Yaya is going to do? She'll be living with us for a while after the baby is born. I know my DH hopes she makes lamb. OPA!!

I may like this idea better and maybe I can go back and edit a pic of DS to add to his baby book....

I don't really care what my belly would look like but more for the kids (really DD) to have fun and do something special with this new baby on the way

No, but I am going to decorate it with some temporary tattoos in the shape of hearts for valentine's day. My husband will be excited when I flash him for the first time in a while! Wink

I don't wear mid-drifts either....who does that nowadays and especially our age! LOL

Yup...its a week apart this year, so April 15th for us.  Lamb is a MUST for Easter...w/yummy lemony roasted potatoes....of course koulourakia, tsoureki and red easter eggs!

I'll probably do it if I'm still pregnant then. It'd be a fun photo to have in a scrapbook and it's not like I'll be going grocery shopping with an egg belly, so I don't see what's tacky about it.

After 12 cycles TTC and two losses, our baby boy is here!

Baby will be out by the time easter gets here so I won't be doing it. I could see it being something fun to do with your older children, but since this is my first I wouldn't do it even if he was due a little later.

That is such a cute idea!  I wanted to do it with DS (he was due 10-25, born 10-24) but we never did. Sad

Maybe I will do the Easter egg this time around... Smile

I am definitely doing this. I love my bump and the fact that LO is due Easter sunday. So an Easter egg belly and a bunny costume for him to come home in.
